when i was in japan i stayed at business hotels. these are small, comfortable and very well maintained rooms for japanese business men. Stayed mainly at Toyoko Inn (or something like that). they have free internet, and alcoholic vending machines in the lobby 24hrs and are very reasonably priced.

My advice is to get a japanese rail pass. they are worth more than your passport (well nearly :() and allow you to travel basically anywhere in japan by rail. (including the bullet train).

get pissed where? :bonk:  

isn't the legal drinking age in Japan 20yo :D  

but you'll be right  heaps of vending machines around and they hardly check gaijin's ID at clubs ;)

ahhh shit.. some one told me they had the same laws as they do here in Aus..

Oh well thats it.. there go my chances of picking up any one.. :pissed: :bonk: lol

Actually wait.. Does that mean that when chicks/guys turn 20 over there they act like silly 18 year olds..? Or just more mature 18 year olds..? :nowigetit

Hey guys, i'm new to this forum. Although i don't drive a Skyline, i drive a Soarer TT.. i know i know, what the hell is a soarer doing on a skyline forum.. .hehehe, i find this thread very useful and you guys seem like a friendly bunch.

Look i'm going over to Japan to teach with Nova in April and honestly this forum is the only one which really has lots of info about japan. The pros and the cons.

I have been reading this forum for a while now and decided to might as well join up. so i look forward to more news from you guys and other things that are happening over there in Japland...

I heard that Japan passed legislation recently that Mines_Datsun was is not allowed to enter Japan in fear of him making up stories of crashing a GTR into a bus stop in Japan!!!!

So unfortunately you will have to stay in Australia :usuck:

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
